System Description
The CM104 is a mine disposal charge designed to be used during countermining operations
to neutralize bottom sea mines by means of sympathetic detonation. It can be installed on any
Remote Operated Vehicles (ROV) using a dedicated coupling system. The CM104 has
a negligible magnetic signature and is in service with several Navies. Once the charge
is deployed beside the mine to be disposed and all safeties are removed an arming delay
allows safe recovery of the ROV. After the arming delay has elapsed the operator initiates the
charge from the MCM vessel stationed at safe distance sending an acoustic coded signal with
a dedicated transmitter.
